I'm over at https://mastodon.gamedev.place and enjoy it a ton.
There are a number of prolific game designers as well as tons of indie devs sharing knowledge + life updates. A very cozy instance without any hateful BS.

Yooo nice. Speaking of which have you found any good fashion / fit sharing communities on lemmy/kbin/masto? Most of what I find is just "look at this celeb wearing Dior" and I am fr yawning

I feel you. I have written browser automation scripts to press "I am not interested in this ad" buttons for me it gets so bad 💀
I've found Patreon to be really rewarding (hidden gems in the game modding space, music producers, technologists + tinkerers of all kinds), but am curious about the vast number of other creators out there. #### Do you have any favorites or even just a list of folks you support on Patreon or kofi?
Over my life, I've noticed that my expenses for living fall into one of three buckets: 1. Exciting buys 1. Wise purchases 1. Necessary costs But I'm mostly curious about that first one... #### What is your favorite kind of exciting buy? My exciting buy might be a new musical instrument even though I have plenty, a new video game, purchasing art, a vacation, a luxurious meal, etc. And less on the fun side of things, my other categories would shake out like: - A wise buy might be investing in a house or business, putting money away for savings, or spending a premium on [a BuyItForLife kind of purchase](https://sh.itjust.works/c/buyitforlife) to avoid buying a new one every year. - A necessary buy is probably the same as most others: housing costs, utilities, clothing, household goods, food, transportation, etc.

Wha? Not sure I understand your actual Q.
Best resource I’ve found for understanding all this is Rax’s video here:

According to the docs, there should be a lemmy-ui
folder that was created by the Ansible install. Within that folder, the app is set up to search for an extra_themes
folder by default.
For native installation (without Docker), themes are loaded by
lemmy-ui
from./extra_themes
folder. A different path can be specified with LEMMY_UI_EXTRA_THEMES_FOLDER environment variable.
Digging into the docker-compose.yml
file used by the Ansible playbook, it looks like this is where extra themes directory is mapped into the lemmy-ui
service.

Oh this is timely, I was just hoping to explore a Bethesda world prior to Starfield!

I think my favorite use of Star Citizen has been from folks like PolarityDnb who use it to create backdrops for ambient electronica compositions.

No way, really?! Well bravo, your abstract word suggestion conjured up just the right game :D

I'm using Gitea and it's been wonderful.
- I run it as a Windows service - I know I know, I should containerize it 😄
- Using SQLite as the DB; I've always been a fan of filesystem DBs
- Not exposed outside my LAN since I just Parsec home when abroad

Like a fission reaction between cope, capitalism and hypetrain grease. Compels me though 🤔

Absolutely no way Star Citizen isn't a massive scam. I mean, people can be incompetent, but
over $580 million
...seems like it has to be some kind of upper limit of incompetence?
Have always had a huge soft spot for [Neocities](https://neocities.org/browse?sort_by=followers), happy to see it getting some time in the news. I [made this dumb game _years ago_](https://wingwing.neocities.org/) and it somehow is just still there, being a weird HTML game on Neocities.
